Barcelona's Kounde Speaks Out After Big Win Over Bayern

The French defender was in impressive form as the Catalan giants secured a famous victory in the Champions League.

Kounde was a key part of a resolute Barcelona defence that kept Bayern Munich at bay for much of the match. The Frenchman made a number of important tackles and interceptions, and he also looked comfortable in possession.

Speaking after the match, Kounde said that he was delighted with the team's performance. "We knew that it would be a difficult game, but we prepared well and we were confident that we could get a good result," he said.

"We defended very well as a team and we took our chances when we got them. We're very happy with the win and we're now looking forward to the next round."

Kounde's performance was particularly impressive given that he was playing out of position. The Frenchman is naturally a right-back, but he was asked to fill in at centre-back due to injuries to Ronald Araujo and Andreas Christensen.

Kounde showed that he is more than capable of playing in a variety of positions, and his versatility will be a major asset to Barcelona this season. The Catalan giants are still in the hunt for the treble, and Kounde will be hoping to play a key role in their success.
